Wheeeeeeeeee!
I played in the snow at midnight. It's the little things in life that are the most fun. :)

1. I miss that, being a New Englander transplant
in Northern California.
I love the way streets with trees on either side look at night when the snow is coming down, or is freshly fallen, and the snow sticks a bit to the branches, so the streetlights glow in the tunnel of whiteness.
So, what did you do in the snow?

2. Mostly, I stood there in wonder of it all.
We hardly ever get snow. We get ice and sleet a lot, but rarely do we get actual snow. It's so beautiful. I changed the porch light first, then I walked around and built a tiny little snowman. Mostly, I had fun just marveling at the stuff. :D

I need to find my gloves so I can build a bigger snowman in the morning. :bounce:

3. I don't think I could do that again.
My thinned Florida blood and all. Glad you had fun, though!

4. I did get a little cold, but it was way fun.
I grinned uncontrollably. I bet my neighbors were laughing their asses off, but I didn't care. I enjoyed it. :)

5. Let them laugh.
Better to be a free spirit that just doesn't give a shit, eh?

6. Yep
My aunt came to the door and told me to get my engineer brain* inside before my fool ass froze to death. I told her I wanted to enjoy it while it was here. It'll be 105 degrees in just a couple months. :rofl:

*She's always picking on the way I do things. She says engineering types are smart but stupid at the same time, lol.

7. it's hard to play in the snow where I live
it is just so darn slushy compared to what I am used to. I make snowmen, but I end up sopping wet by doing so. It quickly becomes unfun when your clothes get all soggy.
